| Description: |
This is a gorgeous tutu style skirt that is perfect for dancing through woodland amongst the snowdrops.
It is a fabulous item of clothing lovingly re-made by Oshun Creations. This means that as if by magic, unwanted clothes and fabric are transformed into new ones that are much much prettier! You can say they are recycled, reconstructed, revamped, but the fashionable new term is ‘upcycled’. I like to to call it re-loved and recreated! I don’t use patterns; developing each garment organically, so every outfit is completely unique , handmade and one of a kind. No-one else will own one like it!
I was inspired by the snowdrop fairy vest made by punk label Strangeways, so I have put them together to form the ideal outfit!
Materials: This skirt has a base of 100% cotton muslin which forms many folds of material, but I have appliqued areas with a variety of fabrics including lace, net and satin in the shape of flower petals.
This garment has some raw edges, which means with wear and washing, they may fray. I do this deliberately because I like the effect it makes and believe it adds to the ethereal quality. If you are interested in the item, but are worried about this, please contact me to talk about it because I can probably sew a seam.
Ideas: Add fairy wings and glitter for a full fairy costume. Or take inspiration from the vest and cyberpunk the outfit with chunky boots. Or wear with ballet shoes for an original White Swan costume from Swan Lake. |

| Skirt: The waist band is elasticated for comfort and means the measurement is a flexible 20" minimum and will stretch comfortably to 35" The length varies between 12 - 20". Vest: Size Medium and stretchy. |
